From Kitchen to Table: Safeguard Every Step with Blue Gizmo Thermometers

In every kitchen, ensuring food safety is a continuous process. From proper storage to precise cooking, monitoring temperature at each stage is critical to protecting your customers from foodborne illnesses. Blue Gizmo’s wide range of thermometers is designed to help you maintain control over every step of the process, from kitchen to table.

Step 1: Safe Storage with Freezer Thermometers

The first step to food safety begins in the freezer. Storing perishable items at the correct temperature helps slow bacterial growth and keeps food fresh. Blue Gizmo offers reliable freezer thermometers like the BG-GA-5 Ref. Freezer Thermometer, BG-TM100 Digital Freezer - Fridge Thermometer. These thermometers ensure your refrigerator and freezer stay within the recommended temperature range of -18°C (0°F) or below for freezers, and 4°C (40°F) for refrigerators. By monitoring storage temperatures closely, you can avoid spoilage and maintain the quality of your ingredients.

Step 2: Prepping with IR Thermometers

Before cooking, it's important to ensure that surfaces like griddles, grills, and ovens are heated to the right temperature. This not only guarantees that food is cooked evenly but also ensures bacteria are killed. Our infrared thermometers, including the BG32 Mini, BG43S, and BG55, offer non-contact surface readings, allowing you to quickly and hygienically check cooking equipment temperatures without touching them. This step is crucial for ensuring that food is cooked on a safe, hot surface.

Step 3: Accurate Cooking with Probe Thermometers

Cooking meat, poultry, and other dishes to the correct internal temperature is essential for eliminating harmful bacteria such as Salmonella, E. coli, and Listeria. Blue Gizmo’s BG363+, BG366, and BG368 probe thermometers provide precise internal temperature readings, ensuring that your food is cooked thoroughly and safely. For instance, chicken should reach an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F) to be safe for consumption. The BG363+ even features ice-point adjustment, giving you extra assurance of accuracy.

Step 4: Continuous Temperature Monitoring

In professional kitchens, consistency is key. Temperature monitoring systems like the BG-Log-Temp, Blue Gizmo Temperature Logger provide long-term tracking and recording of temperatures, ensuring that your cold storage and food preparation areas remain within safe limits throughout the day. This helps reduce the risk of any temperature fluctuations that could compromise food safety. Implementing real-time temperature tracking also ensures peace of mind, knowing your kitchen operates at peak safety and efficiency.

Step 5: Serving Safely

Once the food is cooked and ready to be served, maintaining its temperature is crucial to preventing bacterial growth. Hot foods should be held at 60°C (140°F) or higher, and cold foods at 4°C (40°F) or lower until they reach the customer. Using Blue Gizmo’s thermometers ensures you serve your customers meals that are not only delicious but also safe.
